Sizzling Pubs - Quorn and 3 bean chilli

[Princess_Stevie]

Sorry if there is already a post relating to this, but I couldn't see one.

I'm eating out at a Sizzling pub tonight, and as it's only the first day of my fresh week today, I really want to stay on the straight and narrow. I've been having a look at the menu this morning so that I can plan in advance, and I came across the Quorn and 3 bean chilli:

Quorn mince with kidney, borlotti and black eyed bean spicy chilli, served with spicy mexican rice, tortilla chips and sour cream.

Now, if I was to take a rain-check on the tortilla's and the sour cream, I'm guessing it could be a pretty low Syn dish. Does anyone have a rough idea of how many Syns I'd need to count for the chilli and the rice?

If all else fails, I guess I can stick with the trusty JP with baked beans and cheese on the side!

I've found the nutritional info for the chilli, but as it doesn't tell you how many grams per portion, I can't work out the Syns using the calculator! Looks like it will be a trusty (but boring) JP with beans for me tonight.

I had considered that, but I do Red / Green days so it would mean doing EE for the day. I always feel deprived on EE as I love the double HEx's you get with R / G. I can't make up my mind xx

I don't eat a lot of meat to be honest, most of my days are green. Plus I tend to use the hex's for something sweet after a meal 99% of the time as it saves my Syns.

Anyway, just back. Ended up having 2 chargrilled quorn fillets with a JP and side salad. Didn't feel like I was missing out at all - jobs a good'en!

The chilli would be low syn, I'd just count around 6 for any oil used to be fair... or guess the weight of the dish... I've done that before with the calculator... put a couple of different weights in and its given me a rough idea of how many syns it would be, which although isn't great its better then nothing
